Shiatsu therapy

Shiatsu is a beautifully gentle way of working with infants. It can soothe digestion, and aid circulation; it can promote sleep and a generally happier nature by balancing up the body's energy which might have been disturbed by a challenging birth, teething etc.

Tamsin has experience in working one-to-one with babies who have been born with a difficulty in certain areas - promoting crawling and walking, for example - and other aspects of natural development that are slow to unfold.

Shiatsu massage is helpful for children and teenagers who suffer from headaches, asthma, eczema, repeated ear infections, difficulty in concentrating and many other problems. Shiatsu can help by identifying patterns of movement and energy that can be stimulated or soothed by the parents, or by myself, and relief often follows. Tamsin believes that the parent(s) (or other primary carers) are the most important people in their child's life and she spends time showing them what is possible so the massage can be continued at home in a playful and relaxed way. Everything I do is designed to be enjoyed by the child.

These sessions last three quarters of an hour and cost £40.
